Definitions

  • the present disclosure relates to check valves, and check valve flapper elements.
  • check valves It is known to use check valves to allow fluid flow in one direction therethrough, and to prevent flow in the opposite direction.
  • Check valves are widely used in a wide variety of applications, for example in air conditioning systems, for example in aircraft air conditioning systems.
  • Check valves commonly include a pair of hinged flapper elements that pivot open in the direction of fluid flow when the fluid pressure differential exceeds a predetermined valve “cracking pressure”. If a negative pressure differential exists across the valve, the flapper elements close, preventing flow reversal.
  • Such check valves typically include a pair of flapper elements and frequently employ bumper elements that engage with a stop surface in order to restrict the opening movement of the flapper element past a predetermined maximum opening angle.
  • flapper elements of such prior art flapper valves typically open at high velocities, which typically results in relatively large impacts between the bumper elements and the stop surface when the maximum opening angle is reached. This may result in damage to the check valve components, leading to reduced part lifetimes.
  • the present disclosure relates to a check valve and check valve flapper element which includes a modified bumper element.
  • a check valve comprising a valve housing defining a valve opening and a pair of flapper elements pivotably mounted to the valve housing for rotation relative to the housing between an open position in which they permit fluid flow through the valve opening and a closed position in which they prevent fluid flow through the valve opening.
  • Each flapper element comprises at least one bumper element arranged to engage a stop when in the open position, the bumper element comprising an elastically deformable tongue extending from an upper surface of the flapper element.
  • a pair of mounting posts may be arranged on opposed sides of the valve opening and a hinge pin is mounted between the mounting posts.
  • the at least one bumper element may be arranged at a side region of the flapper element for engagement with a stop provided on a mounting post.
  • a stop surface may be provided on a post extending away from the opening between the mounting posts, and the bumper element be positioned intermediate the sides of the flapper element, for example generally centrally thereof.
  • a stop surface may be formed on a stop pin extending between the mounting posts above the hinge pin, and one or more bumper elements may be provided on the flapper element to engage the stop pin.
  • a flapper element for a check valve.
  • the flapper element comprises a bumper element for engagement with a stop provided on the check valve.

  • the mounting posts 10 may be separately formed from the valve housing 4 and mounted thereto by suitable means, for example by welding, brazing or by suitable fastening means.
  • a hinge pin 12 is mounted between the mounting posts 10 above the central web 8 of the valve housing 4 .
  • the hinge pin 12 may be a unitary structure as shown, or be constituted from two or more sections, for example.
  • the valve openings 6 are closed by a pair of generally planar D-shaped flapper elements 14 which are pivotally mounted to the hinge pin 12 .
  • Each flapper element 14 includes a proximal end 16 and a distal end 18 and includes one or more mounting lugs 20 , in this embodiment three mounting lugs 20 , positioned at its proximal end 16 .
  • the mounting lugs 20 have respective bores 22 through which the hinge pin 12 extends.
  • the mounting lugs 20 of the respective flapper elements 14 alternate along the hinge pin 12 .
  • the lower surfaces 24 of the flapper elements 14 are provided with a plurality of recesses 26 , for weight saving purposes, although this is not essential.
  • the flapper elements 14 are configured to move between an open position and a closed position, permitting or preventing flow through the openings 6 respectively. It will be appreciated that the arrangement shown in FIG. 3 (i.e. where only one flapper element 14 is in the open position) is simply illustrative, and in practice both flapper elements 14 will move together.
  • the peripheral region 28 of the lower surface of each flapper element 14 engages the flange 29 surrounding the respective valve housing opening 6 when the valve 2 is in the closed position, forming a seal therebetween.
  • each flapper element 14 further comprises at pair of bumper elements 30 at its proximal end.
  • two bumper elements 30 are arranged at opposite sides of the flapper element 14 , although it will be appreciated that other bumper element arrangements may fall within the scope of the disclosure.
  • the bumper elements 30 are configured to engage respective stop surfaces 32 formed on the respective mounting posts 10 when the flapper elements 14 are in the open position to prevent the flapper elements 14 from opening beyond a maximum opening angle.
  • the maximum opening angle may be determined based upon the valve design or flow requirements, for example.
  • the stop surface 32 in this embodiment is simply formed as a vertical planar surface of the mounting post 10 .
  • FIGS. 5 and 6 illustrate detailed side and perspective views of the bumper element 28 .
  • Each bumper element 30 comprises an elastically deformable tongue 34 that extends from the upper surface 36 of the flapper element 14 , i.e. the surface of the flapper element 14 facing away from the valve openings 6 .
  • the elastically deformable tongue 34 includes a convex upper surface 38 for engaging the stop surface 32 of the mounting post 10 .
  • the upper surface 38 comprises a rounded convex surface.
  • the surface 38 may, for example be facetted, that is, comprising a number of angled planar or curved surfaces.
  • the elastically deformable tongue 34 may be integrally formed, for example cast, with the flapper element 14 . Alternatively, the elastically deformable tongue 34 may be machined into the flapper element 14 .
  • a groove 40 is defined between the tongue 34 and the upper surface 36 of the flapper element 14 .
  • the groove 40 diverges from a proximal end 42 to a distal end 44 .
  • the groove 40 may not diverge, but may rather be a slot with parallel edges, for example.
  • the proximal end 42 of the groove 40 is rounded to provide improved stress distribution at the proximal end 42 of the groove 40 .
  • each of the flapper elements 14 is configured to move pivotally about the hinge pin 12 between a closed position and an open position.
  • the upper surfaces 38 of the respective elastically deformable tongues 34 engage with the stop surface 32 of the respective mounting post 10 , preventing pivotal movement of each of the respective flapper elements 14 beyond this position.
  • the groove 40 defined between the bumper element 30 and the upper surface 36 of the flapper element 14 permits the tongue 34 to elastically deflect toward the flapper element 14 .
  • This elastic deformation of the tongue 34 dissipates energy as the bumper element 30 impacts the stop surface 32 of the mounting post 10 .
  • the convex shape of the upper surface 38 of the elastically deformable tongue 34 facilitates relative sliding motion between said bumper elements 30 and said mounting posts 10 .
  • the relative sliding motion will also facilitate energy dissipation
  • the bumper design may therefore allow the flapper elements 14 to open at higher velocities without inflicting damage to the flapper elements 14 or the mounting posts 10 , which in turn may improve valve lifespan.
  • the material chosen to manufacture the flapper and bumper elements 14 , 30 will depend on the particular application.
